13 motorcycles thieved from Millicent shipping container

The bikes were being stored at the back of the Millicent Saleyards in a locked facility, and were discovered missing on the weekend.

The bikes have been valued at more than 50,000 dollars.

Sergeant Rick Errington says 13 motorcycles have been stolen.

"We have reason to believe that someone may well have known what was inside and has specifically targetted these things. Being such a large theft we assume that they've had either a large truck or a large enclosed trailer and attended there in the hours of darkness and removed these bikes some time in the last week."

Anyone with information relevant to the theft, or whom may have seen any suspicious activity near or around the area of the sale yards on Saleyard Road, Millicent on late Saturday or early Sunday 2-3 February is asked to contact the Millicent police station on 87333622, or call CrimeStoppers on 1800333000.
